This is probably the best game I played on the phone. Funny, engaging, challenging and has two endings depending what you choose in the end. I can't understand people giving less than 5 stars.

Ik speel dit spelletje vaker dan één keer, en het blijft leuk. Er zitten wel lastige puzzels in, maar dat maakt 't spel juist wel weer leuker. Speel deze niet op mobiele telefoon maar op mijn Nokia 8010 Android TV Box en met bluetooth joystick op 46" inch Panasonic tv...
